8GB is enough as that’s what I have on my 2019 Surface Go.

But that’s a device I bought 399.- (almost the same as dollars) 5 years ago.

So I don’t think it’s okay to sell a new laptop with Pro in its name for a high price in 2024. Especially because it wouldn’t cost them much to upgrade the RAM.

It’s like buying a 30bhp car in 2024. Yeah it’s enough, but not for the price of a normal car.
